From a Global Village to a World of Fortresses
By Paul EjimeMany avid tourists should be familiar with the Global Village in Dubai, which the United Arab Emirates established in 1997 as a cultural destination with pavilions showcasing the cultures and traditions of countries across the globe. Before then, the Global Village concept was coined and popularized by Canadian theorist Marshall McLuhan in his book ‘Understanding Media: the extensions of Man (1964). Still, no thanks to today’s technology-driven digital world of social media, family members, colleagues and friends may be so close, and yet, very far apart. The same governments and individuals who once canvassed that the world is an interconnected global village of humans are now spreading hatred. The world is a stage, and human life is about making a positive impact on others, not about money/wealth, vehicles, houses, or other possessions.
